Hills by mcneilmahon at Garmin Connect – Details.
My first ‘hills’ run since January and a third lot of overdoing it in three runs since the return began. Another six kilometres with the usual cross the bridge five times, rest for five minutes and cross it five times more before heading homewards. Except I was enjoying myself so much I decided to up the pace over the last kilometre as well as I headed back around the small lake to the car and I managed to keep the pace up to around 6m/km. Which meant no time for thinking anything except what I was doing running wise.
The one thought I did have was that I felt much better after my last run and that my legs seemed to have recovered much quicker – was this a result of having a pilates class on Monday? Did the pilates help the legs to recover better? I have a class tomorrow too, so if I don;t feel leggy come Friday it must have something to do with it, because normally after a run like today I would be feeling it til the weekend. Looking forward to the next run already, but going to keep it to twice a week for at least my first month back – that’s the only way I can stop myself from not completely overdoing it! After all, I have many more hills ahead of me to climb…
